Definitions

  • the present invention relates to moulded seamless brassieres including fasteners which are incorporated in a manner to be substantially unobtrusive from view.
  • Moulded brassieres are known.
  • US 20040224604 describes how a brassiere made from mouldable materials can be made without any or no significant use of stitching, at least to the perimeter shape of the brassiere and preferably also at any other parts of the brassiere.
  • Perimeter stitching or stitching elsewhere on a brassiere to hold components of the brassiere together can be undesirable. Stitching can have a tendency to come undone and unravel thereby affecting the integrity of the bra. Regions of stitching that are exposed may also irritate the skin of the wearer of the bra. Furthermore the incorporation of stitching is also time consuming as it needs to be controlled by a person and is hence a labour intensive exercise.
  • Brassieres of a shape that includes two breast cup regions from each of which part of a chest band extends are the most common form of brassieres.
  • clasps or connectors that, when the chest band portions are in part wrapped around the torso of a person, can allow for the connectors to become mutually engaged to thereby ensure that the bra remains attached to the wearer of a person.
  • the connectors used in traditional forms of brassieres include a series of hooks and eyes usually made of a metal wire that can become mutually engaged with each other. The hooks and eyes are normally mounted by sewing or stitching, onto a mounting panel or tape. In the traditional form of brassiere, the mounting panel or tape is sewn onto the chest band portions of the brassiere at or towards their free end.
  • the present invention consists in a method of incorporating a fastener with a moulded brassiere of a kind that is of a seamless construction and that includes an exterior more panel of mouldable material and an interior more panel of mouldable material that is contiguous with said exterior more panel and has been laminated therewith save for at at least a non-laminated region where said fastener is to be located, and wherein said fastener includes a connector supported by a flexible mounting panel, said method comprising: creating an opening through one of said exterior more panel and said interior more panel at said non-laminated region and at a location thereof through which at least part of said connector is to extend; locating said flexible mounting panel intermediate of said exterior more panel and said interior more panel at said non-laminated region in a manner to allow said at least part of said connector to extend through said opening; and affixing said exterior more panel and/or said interior more panel to said flexible mounting panel.
  • said connector is selected from one of a hook and an eye.
  • said affixing said exterior more panel and/or said interior more panel to said flexible mounting panel is by laminating.
  • said affixing is facilitated by a thermo sensitive adhesive intermediate of said flexible mounting panel and one or both of said interior and exterior more panels to, by application of heat and pressure to push said exterior and interior more panels towards each other, laminate said exterior and/or interior more panels with said flexible mounting panel.
  • said thermo sensitive adhesive is pre-applied to said flexible mounting panel.
  • said interior and exterior more mouldable panels are laminated with a release ply placed intermediate of said interior and exterior more moulded panels so as to form said non-laminated region where said fastener is to be located.
  • said fastener is engaged at or near the free end of a chest band region of said brassiere.
  • two of said fasteners are incorporated with said moulded brassiere, a first of said fasteners includes a hook as said connector engaged at a free end of a first chest band region of said brassiere, and a second of said fasteners includes a loop as said connector engaged at a free end of a second chest band region of said brassiere and to cooperate with said hook to engage the free ends of each said chest band region together.
  • said flexible mounting panel is captured entirely between said exterior and interior more panels and said at least part of said connector protrudes through said opening.
  • said flexible mounting panel supports a plurality of connectors for each of which a separate opening is created through said exterior or interior more panels.

  • said interior and exterior more mouldable panels are laminated with a release ply placed intermediate of said interior and exterior more moulded panels so as to form said non-laminated region where said fastener is to be located.
  • said affixing said exterior more panel and/or said interior more panel to said flexible mounting panel is by laminating.
  • said exterior and interior more panels are moulded to introduce two breast cup regions simultaneously with the affixing of said exterior more panel and/or said interior more panel to said flexible mounting panel.

At the free end 6, 7 of each chest band portion 5, 4 respectively, the chest band portions can become mutually engaged to define a chest band holding the bra about the torso of the wearer of the bra 1.
  • the breast cup regions 2, 3 and at least the chest band portions 4, 5 are preferably of a unitary assembly of an exterior more panel 11 and an interior more panel 12 that each are or each includes contiguous plies of mouldable fabric and/or foam material.
  • both the exterior more panel 11 and the interior more panel 12 comprise a fabric ply or layer laminated to a foam ply or layer.
  • each panel 11, 12 may include a foam ply 13, 14 and a fabric ply 15 , 16.

With reference to Figure 3, these upper and lower mould portions 19, 20 are shown separated. Intermediate and in an as yet unlaminated form, the contiguously positioned panels 11, 12 are located. Mould closure (the bringing together of the upper and lower mould portions 19, 20) and with the application of heat will result in the panels 11, 12 from being pressed together to become laminated together to form a laminated and shaped form. This laminated and shaped form can later be perimeter trimmed to define a shape such as the shape 17 shown in Figure 2.
  • the three dimensional shape of the regions of the bra may at this stage not be incorporated, yet the panels 11 and 12 are substantially laminated together. Whilst in the most preferred form lamination and forming can occur simultaneously, in the alternative form lamination may occur first and forming of the shape 17 and its three dimensional characteristics may occur after lamination.

Accordingly for each of the fasteners, one of the exterior and interior more panels is provided with a slit corresponding in location to each of the hooks and eyes. With reference to Figure 5, it can be seen on the right hand side that six slits 30 have been formed to allow for an opening to be created through the exterior more panel 11. Each slit 30 is of a size sufficient to allow for part of the eye 24 to extend through the slit.

  • the panels so referred to may however not be the panels that are outward most in the bra assembly as other panels or plies may be outermost.
  • Interior more refers to the panel being more proximate the side of the bra to the wearer than the exterior more.
  • the contiguous nature of the relationship of the panels indicates that whilst preferably the panels are in direct contact with each other over their entire facing surface, there may be plies of material or substance intermediate. For example adhesive may be located intermediate.
